WOW! Such a gorgeous example of an Emma Domb! This vibrant red organza piece is absolutely perfect for Valentines Day or a party. The straps are embellished with sequins and pearls - the pearls look to be glued on. I believe the chiffon overlay is a type of nylon. It is expertly gathered around the bodice to form a classic look. There is a satin lining for the dress underneath the chiffon and the underskirt even has a built in red crinoline! Zips up the back with metal zipper. Best fits size Extra Extra Small to Extra Small. Model is Size 4/6 and could not zip it up in the back. The zipper does work though! I did do some much needed repairs to it. Please see below for condition and what I did to it.

Good vintage condition - Still presents beautifully and the issues are minor - but there are a lot of them. Please read carefully and look at photos. The chiffon has some minor pulls, loose threads, and faint marks (see photos). Two small holes on the front bodice as well. The inside lining has some fraying and pulling in the bodice (see photos). Faint underarm marks. Beading and sequins look to be in great shape! There WAS a major (6 inch) rip to the inner tulle for the underskirt which I have stitched up to prevent further ripping (please see photo). I was unable to remove the markings fully when she was cleaned - but they are more faint now! Be very careful when zipping the garment up as the tulle likes to get stuck in the sipper teeth! Priced accordingly for the numerous issues, especially the pulling at the interior bodice).
